And the Australia legend has even contacted his former team-mate Kris Radlinski - Warriors' executive director - to say he would be a big asset for 2021.

“I’ve just sent an email to Wigan’s general manager Kris Radlinski, who is also an old teammate and friend of mine, letting him know I reckon Benji would be a great asset to the team and he is still playing outstanding footy," Renouf told NRL.com.

“If Benji can’t get another NRL deal I think he would be a real asset to Wigan because the club has always appreciated his style of player.

“He has a big name over there and Wigan have always been known as an attacking team.

“You look at their history and they’ve had great attacking players like Martin Offiah, Jason Robinson, Ellery Hanley and Radlinski himself."

Marshall, 35, is on the market for next season when he leaves Michael Maguire's Wests Tigers.
